A generator would work better in this situation right?

This is incredible! It loaded so fast on my mobile and I’m able to watch channels from all over. Amazing stuff man. It requires a thread of its own

Agree on this and it’s the architecture that backs our orchestration platform called https://unmeshed.io

New comment by jusonchan81 in "Ask HN: Is AI resulting in net revenue gain for non-tech companies?"

jusonchan81 — Fri, 01 May 2026 04:03:21 +0000

I really dread the chatbot or AI customer service. They make incredibly difficult to reach a human and have templated solutions to problems which are typically not helpful. Most customer service issues that can be solved with a bot can also be solved with a tool. Like canceling subscription or processing a return.

The other day I had a unique problem at Amazon and took me a while to get to a chat with human. They solved it in an instant. But the bot or AI previously was just asking questions that was irrelevant and making it difficult to get to the solution.

Ask HN: Is AI resulting in net revenue gain for non-tech companies?

jusonchan81 — Thu, 30 Apr 2026 19:03:00 +0000

Is AI increasing sales or improving overall outlook for companies using it heavily? Not referring to just coding use cases but overall earnings/revenue improving due to added benefits from direct or indirect AI usage.

New comment by jusonchan81 in "Reallocating $100/Month Claude Code Spend to Zed and OpenRouter"

jusonchan81 — Fri, 10 Apr 2026 01:42:11 +0000

$20 codex has been working great for me and I don’t think I ever hit a limit. It works great because I typically break down the tasks small enough that I can fully review and accept.

I’ve always wondered what’s the business case for spending more as I personally feel I am getting so much done.

Using the game theory, shouldn’t the nice, forgiving and not being a pushover the winning strategy?

I’ve always felt the US won trust and respect with these characteristics. It looks like we are now shifting strategy and I wonder where this will lead to.

The first time I truly enjoyed web development was when I got the hang of jQuery. Made everything so much simple and usable!

jusonchan81 — Fri, 05 Dec 2025 07:28:16 +0000

I doubt this will clear the government/regulatory approvals as it seems clearly monopolistic. But these days anything can happen and I might end up being surprised. Netflix stock seems stable in-spite of this news.

New comment by jusonchan81 in "Replacing cron jobs with a centralized task scheduler"

jusonchan81 — Sat, 02 Aug 2025 08:39:56 +0000

Unmeshed.io is a newer startup in the space - and works like a charm. Temporal seems like more targeting durable executions, but scheduling a different game. It starts with crons but soon you got to deal with holidays, adhoc skips and holds and more especially during maintenance and upgrades.

Unmeshed has all of these, managing holiday calendars etc and makes it super easy. It even has agents for AS400 server commands if that is still a thing you need.

This reminds me of Dwight from the office in the episode where he doesn’t tip the delivery driver and says: I never tip for anything I can do myself. I can deliver this if I want to.

I’m not sure there is much risk in vendor lock in. Look at Temporal. If you use the SDK you are probably locked in for life.

Ask HN: AI tools/products that can accurately answer questions from documents?

jusonchan81 — Mon, 24 Mar 2025 03:08:23 +0000

We have been searching for AI tools or strategies that can be used to answer questions with close to 100% accuracy effectively from multiple PDF documents. Cost and latency is also a major factor. Most of our tests have significant error rates that can’t be put into production as it has financial implications. Are there any products out there that can help here?

jusonchan81 — Sat, 22 Mar 2025 02:23:03 +0000

Unmeshed - it’s not open source. It’s a new version of Netflix Conductor. Scales really well and has a GitHub actions style agent that can be used to run commands orchestrated by the platform. It’s probably the cheapest commercial tool you can get.
